Blackberry Honey Wheat Scones

My three year old son loves (with a capital L) baking with me in the kitchen.  I find it fascinating that at a young age he would ask to go to the kitchen and start baking.  "Mama, let's make cookies!" he often says with an irresistible smile I can not refuse. I'm learning that it isn't baking that he loves so much as it is pouring and dumping different ingredients into a bowl.  We always count out loud with each cup we add.  Sometimes I sound out the ingredients slowly having him guess which letter each ingredients starts with. I'll ask playfully, "B-B-B-Butter.  What letter does butter start with?" He will respond with an enthusiastic, "B!" Speaking from experience, there are times I would prefer to not have Eli help me in the kitchen so I can cook more quickly without having to stop and go between steps.  But when I pause just long enough to remember the joy of learning that Eli experiences while counting numbers, using his motor skills, and spending time with me, then cooking with my son becomes fun and time well spent together. I have a blackberry honey wheat scones recipe for you.  They melt in your mouth and are currently my most favorite baked good to make.  Eli loves to bake them with me, too. Quick Note: No food processor? Feel free to use your fingers. Work the dry ingredients and the butter by rubbing your fingers together until coarse meal forms.
